I love doing my own facials, but I heard you should do them about 2 times a week...do you think it's okay to do a clay mask everday? (I use St. Ive's Firming Clay Mask)

Why is there a bunch of Thumbs Down?? =( jeez someone is jealous. Well I will give you my opinion anyways, I think that it is not a good idea considering that it can dry out your face and your pores produce NATURAL oils. Twice a week is fine.

NO NO AND NO! clay masks are meant for oily or combination skin types and weekly. I know this from personal exeperience and for further proof this is from beautybrains.com
Clay masks contain oil absorbing ingredients, like kaolin, that can dry out your skin. So, if your skin is very oily you can benefit from using these products on an occassional basis. However, because they can be so drying, they can also irritate and damage your skin if you use them too frequently. In reality, using a good cleanser will give you the same benefit without the risk of overdrying. But the magic of the mask is the tightening, tingling feeling you get that makes you think it’s doing much more

Clay mask is to cleanse & reduce the amount of oil on your face - is this what you want?
Too little oil on your face will make you skin dry and eventually ageing takes over.
Too much attention to your face will also do the same.
It is recomended that you do a face mask about once or twice a week.

I Would do them 3 times a week And try to keep them a little moist but I haven't heard of any damage being done by using them daily.

You should only do them once to twice a week. They can be very drying to your skin and you can have a breakout just because your skin is to dry too.

I would think it could aggravate your skin if you did it more than 2 or 3 times a week.

I think it may dry out your skin? then your face will produce more oil, and that might cause breakouts.
do it like the directions say...they are there for a reason.

No, maybe about once a week would be fine. To do otherwise would take all the moisture out of your face.
